screen refresh? FIXED

Unread postby wobbly » Tue Oct 23, 2012 3:56 pm

Hi all I have a strange problem,when I am playing the overlay menus seem to stay on screen but if highlight a object like a tank or troops part of the ghost image disappears it also happens in the game menus,this usually happen after about a hour of gameplay,I can some times end up with bits of previous menus all over the screen,I don't have this problem with any other game or program any ideas please. :?:

Can you be precise about which overlay you're talking about? Maybe you can send me a screenshot...

EDIT: also which OS you are using, and does this happen in full screen or window?

Can you try running this in window mode to see if it happens there?

EDIT: I see the screenshot now, thx.

I'm glad that we found a workaround for you, but honestly I don't have an idea of what could possibly be causing this particular behaviour. :?

I'll think about it further, send you a PM if I think of something if that's OK?

Okay this is how I fixed the problem,
open your game installation folder
find the uoc application icon (the one with the picture of a soldier on it)
right click
select properties
select the compatibility tab
and check the bottom three check boxes in the center setting box (like the screen shot)
bish bosh job done!!!!! :D
